Description
This full-color watercolor caricature is lighthearted and comical, reflecting the inside scoop of a Canadian-based corporation with offices in France - The French Connection. This character is based on the reference photo of the CEO's face given to me. The Arc de Triomphe background was my own interpretation of the story they told me.
In the background is the Arc de Triomphe de l'รtoile (Triumphal Arch of the Star), one of the most famous monuments in Paris, France, situated at the western end of the Champs-รlysรฉes at the center of Place Charles de Gaulle, formerly named Place de l'รtoile (star) from which twelve avenues radiate.
Tell me your story and your ideas and I will create comical watercolor images of your favorite characters at the office, the plant, your home, your school.
Thank you to the hosts of the following groups for featuring my painting! I appreciate your kind support and encouragement.
